  • VICKZ family member 2
Background InformationInsulin-like growth factor 2 mRNA-binding protein 2 (IGF2BP2) is a member of the IGF-II mRNA binding protein family that posttranscriptionally regulates IGF2 during developmental stages. IGF2 mRNA-binding protein family members (IGF2BP1, 2 and 3) bind UTR region of IGF2 transcripts and are implicated in the transport of RNA targets to enable protein synthesis at specific locations in the cytoplasm. Studies have indicated variations in the IGF2BP2 gene may affect fetal glucose metabolism and plays a role in type 2 diabetes. In addition to playing a role in glucose metabolism and dieabetes, the insulin-like growth factor (IGF) signaling axis plays an important role in cancer biology. Research has shown IGF2 to be emerging as an important gene for ovarian cancer.

Entrez Gene Number
Entrez Gene SummaryThis gene encodes a member of the IGF-II mRNA-binding protein (IMP) family. The protein encoded by this gene contains several four KH domains and two RRM domains. It functions by binding to the 5' UTR of the insulin-like growth factor 2 (IGF2) mRNA and regulating IGF2 translation. Alternate transcriptional splice variants, encoding different isoforms, have been characterized. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008].

UniProt Number
UniProt SummaryFUNCTION: Binds to the 5'-UTR of the insulin-like growth factor 2 (IGF2) mRNAs. Binding is isoform-specific. May regulate translation of target mRNAs.

SUBUNIT STRUCTURE: Interacts with HNRPD and IGF2BP1.

SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cytoplasm. Note: Localized in cytoplasmic mRNP granules containing untranslated mRNAs. Localizes at the connecting piece and the tail of the spermatozoa.

TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed in oocytes, granulosa cells of small and growing follicles, Leydig cells, spermatogonia and semen (at protein level). Expressed in testicular cancer (at protein level). Expressed weakly in heart, placenta, skeletal muscle, bone marrow, colon, kidney, salivary glands, testis and pancreas. Detected in fetal liver, fetal ovary, gonocytes and interstitial cells of the testis.

DOMAIN: The third and fourth KH domains are important for binding to the untranslated region (UTR) of target mRNA.

MISCELLANEOUS: Autoantibodies against IGF2BP2 are detected in sera from some patients with hepatocellular carcinoma.

SEQUENCE SIMILARITIES: Belongs to the RRM IMP/VICKZ family.

Contains 4 KH domains.

Contains 2 RRM (RNA recognition motif) domains.

SEQUENCE CAUTION: The sequence AAH21290.1 differs from that shown. Reason: Erroneous initiation.
Molecular Weight~66 kDa observed. An uncharacterized band at ~50 kDa may be observed in some lysates. Alternative splicing can result in 5 isoforms with molecular weights ranging from 55-66 kDa.
